Even though it's expensive, green for finally having a deal on FW on a watch that's not ugly. Actually a great looking watch IMO.
For reference, eBay auctions seem to go for about $400 shipped while most Buy-it-nows hover around $430-$475 shipped. So you could probably get it a little cheaper there, but for everyone that detests eBay, this is certainly a good deal.

I agree... those Coutura's are nice... when I was looking for a watch 6 months ago I wish I had this deal.

Is this dealer reputable? They have an address in Staten Island, NY And they sell Breitling online when Breitling says on their web site that 99% of Breitling sold online are fakes...

Wow...good looking watch all around. Pricey for Seiko brand, but build quality "looks" excellent. Currently have a RADO which is made from the same composite ceramic as the Space Shuttle. Hmmm, Tempting. It may be time for a new style.

I bought my dad this watch from Jomashop and it's really cool.
All of my watches are automatics, so it's a pain to put them on the winder or set them whenever I want to wear them. This watch goes into 'sleep mode' if you take it off for an extended period and then sets itself when you move it.

Everything is relative. I guarantee there are people out there who think whatever you have on your wrist is a joke. If you can't appreciate what $500 can mean to people, you've never lived on your own. This isn't MyParentsFillMyWallet.com after all.

If you guys read the only reseller rating for them you will see that the rater started talking about a Pen then said the watch was delivered on time, I am pretty sure that rating was made up by the seller. They only have 1 rating, ofcourse it is a 10.
It's 542.50. Apply JANSAVE30 coupon for 30% off. Apply MVC5885 for free shipping.
Total is 379.75 + tax if applicable.
Plus, it's a reliable retailer. 5% shopdiscover Cash Back
Great alternative deal. Also, don't forget FatCash (2% back), ebates (also 2%), or jellyfish.com (the winner at 4%). My total in PA was about $384 after taxes, coupon and jellyfish rebate.
Incidentally, I'm showing free shipping after the 30% discount, no additional coupon necessary.
re/ the OP's mention of a PriceGrabber rebate...FWIW, the last three Seikos I bought (from Amazon) came with no discernable UPC code on the box, so there was no way to submit a PG rebate request on those. Hopefully, this one will be different.

It looks great! wish it had day of week instead of the 4 yrs dial(hand moves once annually) then I will get it. I don't mind adjusting my watch once every 4 years for the leap year, but do need the day of week info.
I thought about getting the one posted in this deal, but the leap year dial seems rather useless to me. Instead, I ordered a similar watch in silver without the dial and about $60 cheaper. Seiko Coutura Silver
This watch is nearly identical. Kinetic, perpetual calendar, waterproof to 330ft, etc. The only difference seems to be color and the fact that the leap year dial is now missing. It was $360 including tax from Kohl's after using the 30% off coupon. Turns out I could just reactivate the old account that I had canceled. Thanks for the deal!

Yeah, I saw that too. I still think it looks nicer than having the actual leap year dial on it.
